title: [Expediency of long-term anti-angina therapy and physical exercises in patients with angina pectoris and a history of myocardial infarction].
abstract: Altogether 105 patients were investigated 1.5-2 mos after myocardial infarction. They were divided into 2 groups: 1) 57 patients on nitrates or anapriline for one year; 2) 48 patients on acetylsalicylic acid (0.25 g/day) and nitrates by strict indications. Patients of the both groups performed physical exercises for one year by the methods developed at the All-Union Cardiology Research Center. The differences between Groups 1 and 2 were statistically insignificant in deaths (3.5 and 4.2%, respectively), recurrent myocardial infarctions (8.8 and 6.3%), CHD exacerbations (12.2 and 20.8%), higher tolerance, performance volume, double product, and threshold oxygen consumption. It was concluded that during a year therapy in patients with myocardial infarction who performed physical exercises, the long-term antianginal therapy chosen on an individual basis had no advantages over low-dose acetylsalicylic acid and a single use of nitrates (according to strict indications).
